I feel this too, and I've learned to accept that this is just the way my brain works. Once I've lost my motivation for a certain project there's really no point trying to force it back, and besides, this isn't such a bad thing. The whole point of a side project is that I can work on what I want, even if that means doing something new every 4-6 weeks.

I create a "project" in my to-do list app for each side project, and dump every little idea I have in there while I'm excited and switched on about the idea. When my motivation ebbs and eventually returns (months or years later), I have a low-friction starting point to jump back in, which makes all the difference.

Jumping into a months-old codebase _and_ having to figure out what to build next usually means I feel a bit discouraged and never really get back to that project.

This is absolutely amazing. I'm working on a small side project exploring programmability in a smaller design space, and this really takes those ideas to the next level – I'm definitely going to be spending days going over this with a fine-tooth comb.

Thanks for sharing!

I have two sons – 5 and 1 – and this is exactly the kind of relationship I want to build with them. Do you have any advice?

Thanks, and I'm terribly sorry for your loss.

Ha, that's a wild coincidence! What was your app called, by the way?

قبل 4 سنواتdiscuss

I considered this, but I'm trying to be extra careful about my email/phone providers disabling my account over spam/etc. Perhaps a CAPTCHA would help?

Thanks for the feedback ... I'm still not convinced because of spam concerns, but I'm definitely going to give this more thought!

I responded to this in a comment below[0], but essentially, this tool:

  - Can call you with a reminder, which can be more powerful than notifications
  - Works across platforms
  - Will eventually support more integrations, such as calendars, webhooks, and telegram/whatsapp/etc.

I'm not able to reproduce this, unfortunately. Can I trouble you to send a screenshot to [email protected] so I can investigate?

Thanks, this is useful feedback. The pricing isn't set in stone, and I haven't given it much thought so far, to be honest. Do you have any thoughts around what a more reasonable price point might be?

In addition, I'd encourage you to give the app a shot using the NUDGESHN promo code (3 months free on the pro plan); I'd love feedback on more than just the pricing page!

The temptation to make it perfect and build out a large feature set first is real and paralyzing; I doubt I would've gotten anything out the door if I didn't cut scope.

This took a bit longer than your project (initial commit on Oct 16, I just checked), but I still cut a ton of stuff I'm excited about building. How are you managing scope for your project?

Regarding pricing, I haven't really given it too much thought yet, and the current numbers are essentially just placeholders. Thanks for the feedback, and good luck with your project!

Thanks to everyone who has checked this out! This is the first real app I've launched on HN, and it's a great feeling to know people are using something I've made. :)

To anyone who wants to give the phone call/text messaging features a shot asap, you can use the code NUDGESHN for 3 months free on a Pro plan.

For the record, the free plan doesn't include any call/text credits at the moment because I'm worried about my phone provider disabling my account over spam if I allow this for free accounts.

Apologies, this should be fixed now.

Great question! The closest thing I've found to this app is simply adding reminders as events to Google Calendar and setting up email notifications for each one. I'd say nudges is better in these ways right now:

  - Phone call notifications have been quite powerful in practice. I miss push notifications all the time, but a phone call is harder to ignore.
  - More powerful scheduling: some filters aren't possible to create (like "last day of month") in the Google Calendar UI

I'm also planning to implement more integrations (webhook triggers, webhook notifications, slack/discord/telegram/whatsapp notifications), which should tip the scales somewhat more. I also want to integrate Google Calendar at some point, so you could create nudges for all your calendar entries automatically.

I'm working on an app that focuses on the "rituals" you mentioned, so I've been thinking a lot along these lines too.

Things and other similar apps are great for one-off tasks that possibly need to be done in the future ... the power to say "I want to do this in 3 weeks" but not have to think about it until then is hard to beat, and hard to properly articulate until you've experienced it. At the same time they aren't as good for routines where you want to tick off the same set of tasks every time, especially when the routine doesn't happen very often.

The app is in _very_ early alpha at the moment, but I'd love feedback if you're willing to give it a shot: https://checklists.fyi

Relatedly, iTerm's tmux integration[1] pairs very well with this setup.
